Trail Golf Endurance Challenge

Creekside Trails

Don’t let the name fool you, there’s no clubs or balls involved. This is a trail running endurance challenge like no other! The object of the game? Complete the routes with the lowest cumulative score and you win. Simple enough. But wait, “score”? Don’t you mean “time"? Not quite…

Here’s how it works: At the top of each hour everyone will start the same route, or “Hole”, of about 3-4 miles in length. Depending on the time window you finish in, you’ll receive a stroke score (“Birdie”, “Par”, “Bogey”, etc). 9 Holes in total for the 50k, 3 Holes for the 10-miler. Like in golf, the goal is to have the lowest score.

The time windows have been calculated for each Hole and are based on the total distance covered and overall pace (see table below). For example, if you run 10-12min/mile pace for each hole, you’ll be hitting Par. For scoring, “Eagle” is always 2 strokes, “Birdie” gets you 3, “Par” is 4, and so on.

Event Schedule:

50K starts with Hole 1 at 9:00 AM

10M starts with Hole 4 at 12:00 PM
